Well I don't have the whole context here, and I can't rule out the possibility that you misunderstood some part of your teacher's answer
oh ya sorry, do you mind i upload this whole question ?
Also, you only circled a U, not a whole path, so I can't know which of P(U|F) and P(U intersect F) you're talking about, but anyway that can't be P(U)
Do so, but in a thread then to avoid flooding this channel
thank you so much againnnn it's mean a lot to me
wait a moment
Hold on a second
this one is question 2c, one of the part of solution
probability question
polska gurom🇵🇱
Hello, can you help me in the second question please? (I don't know what do I need to prove reciprocally)
how do i prove that function is decreasing without graphing
or is graphing the only way
oh wait i can use dy/dx lmao
sorry, can anyone help me to do this que
solve for y when x=1 and x=2
Just use wolfram alpha or something
write it as x²/(x-1)(x+1)² then do partial fraction decomposition
you should get 3 pretty easy integrals
ohh okayy, thank youuu!!!
np
hi, how about this. can anyone help me to this
try to multiply by t+sqrt(1-t²)/t+sqrt(1-t²)
you can't divide by 0
Whyy
well when you divide a by b you're asking yourself:"how many times do i have to sum b by itself to obtain a?" which is also"what's the number that if multiplied by b gives a?".
try to answer both questions if b=0
@raw tartan
it's a rule so you don't break maths
do what PhysStudent said then sub: t = tan θ, dt = sec^2 (θ) dθ
i mean
why thou
also dt=dtheta/sec²
if you do what i said you end up with the integral of -t-sqrt(1-t²)
if you really wanna do a substitution you can just say that for the second one t=cos or sin
yeah nvm i did the math wrong and somehow end up with sqrt(1+t^2), damn redoing this problem i really eff'd up rationalising the quotient soz soz
i double checked and dt = sec²θdθ for t = tan θ from the derivative of y = tan(x). It's not relevant to the questioned cause i eff'd it but this part isn't wrong
right, got a bit confused
yeah normally it's theta = f(t) no the other way around
but this is just "=>" and I am resolving an equation so I need also to prove something reciprocally ("<=")
Can someone explain me why isn’t by f‘ 2x/x^4? Why is there 2x/x^2
Why would it be x^4 when (lnX)' = 1/x not 1/x^2
Cause I thought If you are doing f‘ you have to do the number under line ^2 @surreal hill
happens to the best of us,hope u get it now
okayyy, thank youuu^^
Haven't really computed integrals in a while (the further you progress into engineering courses, the less math you do I guess lol), but since it's a multiple choice question, you can always differentiate all the answers, and see which gets you to the expression in the integral
why is the value of this integral always = 2
irrespective of values of R and r
for all 0 <= r <= R & R > 0

can someone help me on this? what I already know is we will integrate velocity formula to get the displacement formula, and then use the displacement formula to find displacement at t=0, t=6. can we use displacement formula when speed is constant during t=6 to 12?
answer is 522. my textbook has really weird solution which I only understood up till t=6 seconds. After that they used basic distance formula for t=6 to t=12 and then a different basic displacement formula for the deceleration part. Why can't I use integrated displacement formula for all times? is there a limitation of where you can use integrated formulas ?Thanks for helping
BTW tried using integrated displacement formula ffor t=12 but the answer is coming off wrong
pls help 😭
have you tried solving the integral?
it's quite easy, just subsitute cosx=u
i mean you can always integrate, actually you are always integrating even when you say d=v* t, it's just that for t=6 to t=12 it travels at constant speed and after that it has a constant acceleration so you just have v=a* t
we are always integrating but with 3 different formulas for velocity
why can't we use the displacement formula for the distance at t=12? why is it giving me an incorrect answer? @supple island
sorry, just seen this, didn't get the notification.
not really sure what you're asking, can you post a picture of what you're tring to do?
I'm trying to use this formula of displacement to find total distance but the answer is coming off wrong
this is true from t=0 to t=6
from t=6 to t=12 the speed remains the same
so the formula is different
from t=6 to t=12 you have v=36
so you got s=integral from 6 to 12 of v in dt, which is 36t calcluated from 6 to 12
after that you have constant acceleration, so v=integral of a in dt a=-4m/s², we know that v=36 at the start of deceleration so it takes 9 seconds to stop
now do the integral from t=12 to t=21 of vdt to find the 3rd s
and here you go
@restive wedge
don't mind the y things above
so we can't use integrated displacement formula when speed is same?
you can always use the integral
as you can see here
no I mean the formula given in question
v=12t-t²?
its integral which is 6t^2-t^3/3
that's correct
but after t=6 the speed changes
so you have to integrate with the new formula of v
you can't use the same thing
it is applicable you just have to do another integral
THANK YOU, you are so cool
also it's when speed changes its description, not just "when it changes" to be more precise
description means? meaning when speed goes from accelerating/decelerating to being constant and vice versa?
yeah, because from t=0 to t=6 v is described by v=12t-t², from 6 to 12 it's described by v=36 and from 12 to 21 by v=36-4t
Thank you!

hello there guys
just needed a bit of help with my homework
if anybody could help me out
i really cant seem to able to figure this question out
im using the inifinite series sum formula
but getting the wrong answer
doesn't work and even if it did, it qould be quite rude to tag 7k+ people for this
i apologise
don't worry nobody has been tagged, only mods could do that
do any of you know how to solve the question tho?
sorry i haven't done maths is years :/
bro i think your series doesn't even converge tbh
the series does converge
you can write this as ((e/pi)^n * 1/e)², we can put the 1/e² aside and see that this is a geometric series, also e/pi<1 so it converges
now you can write the series as a(1-r^n)/(1-r) where a is the first term and r is the common ratio, a=1/e² and you'll easily find that r=(e/pi)², now since r<1, we'll have that the series= 1/(e²(1-(e/pi)²)
can someone help me with a linear algebra's problem?
just ask, someone will answer
the dimension of C² =4
so no
you need something like (1,0)(i,0)(0,1)(0,i)
that's what i thought but are you able to prove it without talking about dimension? I tried: (a,b) is a generic vector in C^2 (a,b) = α (i,0) + β (0,i) and i obtained that α = a/i , β = b/i
I guess i must separate the real part and the complex part
for exaple, a generic vector in C^2 is (a+bi , c+di) so: (a+bi , c+di) = α(i,0) + β(0,i)
correct me if i'm wrong, but i don't think alpha and beta can be complex
the generic vector is also not (a.b), it's (a+bi,c+di)
Thank you so much
np
so i guess S = {1+i , 1−i} is a generator of C
1+i is a generator of C
cuz it's (1) (i)
if you write it as if it was in R² it's (1,0) (0,i)
ahhhh mb, thanks
np, C can be a bit confusing since its dimension=2 but it's written as 1 number
it usually helps me seeing it as if it was R²
Can anyone help me with 10th CBSE math?
for which arguments a and b the function is differentiable
dude why do u hate urself
its possible but its not worth the effort
trust me
i havea question on vectors pls help someone
i forgot how to do it so pls dont judge me to harshly
IK ITS EASY SHHH
if you see C^2 as a real vector space (meaning coordinates of vectors in a base are real numbers) then yea, but if you see C^2 as a complex vector space (meaning coordinates of vectors in a base can be complex numbers) then it's 2D
whats the q
Ah shit i knew there was something wronng about It, i should stop answering Linear algebra questions for now and just tag you instead
could u answer mine pls?
There's no question thou
fair poin
its calculate ac and direction of ac
If you consider North East being at 45° it should be quite easy
ohhh ok cause i was confused that they gave no angle
ty
nahh ur answer was right anyway, just under the assumption that we look at it as a real vector space
oh ok cool
thx fpr the clarification
ok so assume look at the given graphs f(x) and g(x)
we know that g(x) is a negative mod graph/absolute value graph
lets just assume for argument sake that f(x) is a parabola
so basically think of the composite function as f(-|x|)
and then u can work the answer out
i am at a complete loss here, how can I solve for x?
let f(x) = 1+x/e + x^2/(2 e^2) - 3 exp(-x)
then f'(x) = 1/e + x/e^2 + 3 exp(-x) > 0 (we can prove that it's positive by computing f''(x) and looking at the sign of the global minimum of f' (x))
so f is increasing, so there can't be more than 1 solution
f(0) = 1 - 3 = -2 < 0
f(1) = 1 - 2 exp(-1) + 1/(2 e^2) > 0
so the unique solution is between x=0 and x=1
that's all I know lol
idk how to solve for x either tbh
thanks for the help anyway
is there anyway to solve this except graphically
why dont u just graph it?
graph each side of the equation and then just intersection point
no?
I could but I doubt it'll be a satisfactory answer to the question
Cause my teacher is like that
what does satisfactory answer mean
its math
the answer will be the same
?
so is this ok @zenith dock ?
if not ill try to do it algebraically
You can try, I'm not sure how I could graph it
What I meant was that by graphing it you won't get the exact answer
I've checked in wolframalpha is that the answer has infinite decimal places or so, so most likely wolfram just approximated it without getting an exact value because it wasn't able to
oh exact
give me a sec
do u have the answer
just incase so i can check?
I'll calculate it again, one sec
give me like 5 min
yeah same i've tried like every trick i know
most likely
i can try to translate it to english but it's a statistics question
did u copy it down correctly?
yup, i've got the pdf
yea go ahead
a random variable X has a poisson distribution of the parameter λ. For which values of λ does the probability of X<3 equal 3/e^λ?
rough translation but i think the important bits are correct
so what i did was added the probabilities of X = 0 and X = 1 and X = 2
yea ok what u did is correct
but i think u also need to consider the values of 2.999999...
i'm not sure how to explain this but isn't poisson distribution discrete? so the only X'es that can be used are integers starting from 0
oh i didnt read that part
my b
hmm ok then what u have done is correct
and its now an algebra problem
exactly, that's why i ommited the statistics part cause i was kinda confident that part was done correctly
yea that part is correct
let me think
is this meant to say for what values of x?
not lambda
or am i mistaken
when I posted the algebra part of the question I substituted lambda for x to make the potential discussion easier
ok well now im confused
ok let me rewrite
i used x instead of λ in this cause im lazy
it should be 1 + λ/e + λ^2/2e^2 = 3/e^λ
have I made myself clear now?
i think so
is this correct @zenith dock
its been a while since i have done random variables
yea
ok
so we need to find x right?
for which it is equal to the thing u said above
we need to find λ
yea thats fine
its still boils down to the fucking algebra
sorry man i dont think i can help you
im going in circles here with the equation
best of luck
sorry once again dude
no worries
oh wait i think im dumb af and I wrote the equation wrong @left knoll
P(x<3) = p(x=0) + p(x=1) + p(x=2)
which gives us
3/e^λ = λ^0/(0!*e^λ) + λ^1/(1!*e^λ) + λ^2/(2! *e^λ)
we can multiply both sides by e^λ and then it's a simple quadratic equation
λ = 1 or λ = -2 but λ has to be positive in a poisson distribution iirc
I FUCKING KNEW IT
CAUSE IT WAS COMING CLOSE AS A QUADRATIC
lmao
WELL DONE MAN
thank you
I KNEW I WAS SHIT AT ARITHMETIC
for listening to my ramblings and trying to help
haha np man glad u figured it out
@left knoll @zenith dock Hey ! For answers that are 20+ message-long, I suggest you switch to a thread or to dm's next time ;)
my bad, sorry!
can anyone explain how this part was derived
my intuition tells me that this can be done but i cant explain it why it can be done
I think that, I can derive the ratios from the four segmented triangles and all the ratios equal to each other because earlier I proved the corresponding angles of the sides are equal
Idk is this the correct explanation or.not
struggling with this, can anyone kindly help
If I've understood the question correctly then the total costs per week would be X - 20 + 1000, while the earnings per week would be 50X. Then you find the point where these two functions intercept and the x-value of that point will be the number of trips needed to break even.
Stuck on this simplification if someone would check it for me I’d be super grateful
Mark scheme says:
Why isn’t it this instead:
becaues you like to express everything as e^itheta so that you can represent it with a sinusoidal, but i'd need more context on what you're doing
both are correct... depends on what more you want to do with that equation... if simplifying is the only goal, than the first form is correct because when everything is inside of brackets, ist considered more simple.... does that help? do you want further explanation ?
ohhhhh yes of course thanks a ton guys
just me being a bit slow hahaha
tyvm @solemn ore @supple island
best answer, although I'd argue that the a+jb form would be considered more simplified than j(b-ja)
My bad will keep in mind next time
Anyway to solve this except graphically
The points are colinear if and only if PQ = a QR (with a = some constant value)
The formula comes from the fact that the points are collinear if two of the three vectors (PQ, QR, RP) have the same direction, no matter their relative norm
the constant "a" acts as the degree of freedom regarding the norms
Ok ok that makes sense thank you so much
it's not really clear what the question is
you need to find x? idk
oh oops i didnt read till the end i guess my bad
yeah it asks p/1012 but what does that mean either
it is okayy
Jenny is going to attend a sports camp for 7 days. Each day, she will play exactly one
of three sports: hockey, tennis or camogie. The only restriction is that in any period of 4
consecutive days, she must play all three sports.
Find, with proof, the number of possible sports schedules for Jenny’s week.
i know how to break it down but i dont know how to calculate it
@ember kernel I think your tutorial just got deleted for my question
the first formula line says that
E(X) = 1 * P(X=1) + 2 * P(X=2) + 3 * P(X=3) +... +2023 * P(X=2023)
and since all those probabilities are equal to 1/2023 (if u pick a random number between 1 and 2023, the probability u chose 666 is 1/2023)
so
E(X) = 1 * 1/2023 + 2 * 1/2023 +... + 2023 * 1/2023
= 1/2023 * [1 + 2 +... + 2023]
= 1/2023 * [ 2023 * 2024 / 2] using the third formula
= 1012
you do kinda the same with E[X^2] to find that
E[X^2] = 2024 * 4047/6 = 1012 * 4047/3 = 1012 * 1349 (check if i got my mental math right), using the fourth formula
u use the second formula to find that
p = Var(X) = 1012 * 337
meaning p/1012 = 337
Yup, because I was answering half-focused, and realised I had misunderstood the question
haha but thxs for helping anyways !
seems complicated
this is why i need help haha 🥲
thought abt it for 10 mins, couldn't find a good way :(
yh probabilities questions are mostly logics questions which is pretty confusing ngl
apart from like making a trees of all possibilities, with some simplifications, I can't think of anythinh
i think is about combinations hmmm
like in the 4 first days, there must be one sport that appears twice. call that sport A
then call the first sport, other than A, that appears in the 4 first days, sport B
and the other one C
so for first 4 days it's either
AABC
ABAC
BAAC
BACA
BCAA
ABCA
and from each of those, would branch out the trees to add all possible 5th letters, then 6th,then 7th
I think it would be really annoying lol, and there must be a straightforward way
(at the end, gotta multiply the number of 7-letter-words found by 3! to account for the assignments of A, B, C to hockey, tennis, camogie)
hmm make sense
i'll think about what u had said. but someone also had lead to before would that be the easier way u r talking about
idk what this means on its own
like this is just part of the answer that person gave you, not the whole answer
so first i said this than
than
u guys both sound confusing xD
but yea what u wrote abt first three 3 days with one sport each is wrong, it's 3! not 3C1
3 * 2 * 1
and the rest of what you wrote and what he wrote I don't understand it
I'm not sure he understands the answer
this is what the last thing he told me after telling me about the bookshelf thing
I think ur friend is wrong
oo really what about his logic
I think he's wrong
lol XD then ig is a pretty confusing question!
help?
Suppose in step 0 we have a line segment 6 units long. Consider the process of dividing this segment into three equal parts and replacing its middle third with a square without the base, as shown in the following figure.
Replace the middle third with a square without the base.
Let the figure Fk be obtained by repeating this process for each of the segments of step k−1, for k≥1.
Determine the step k from which the figure Fk will be at least 576 units long.
Hi, can someone please explain this one?
x^2+7y=-9x〖+y〗^2-3
can u guys turn this into general form?
You can prove that X is 2 by 2, because the other two matrices are as well
Start off by defining X := [[a b] [c d]]
Your goal is to find the values of a, b, c and d
Using the formula of matrix multiplication, you can find that
2a + 3c = -5
2b + 3d = -8
etc.
The, you'll be left with four equations of four unknowns (and even better, the system can even be split into two independant sub-systems, one with a and c, the other with b and d)
Just solve the system for a, b, c, d
Another way of finding X would have been to compute the inverse of the matrix [[2 3] [5 9]], and pre-multiply the whole equation by that same inverse (just like you'd solve 9x = 4 by dividing both terms by 9)
The only thing that prevents us from following that method is that the determinant of [[2 3] [5 9]] is 0, and thus it has no inverse
I hope I was able to help you
thanks
Sorry, the text is barely legible, can't help you ^^
Is it visible now ?
Write the polynomial function of the third degree (or lower) whose graph passes through the points P(-2.-9). Q(0, 5), R(1, 6) and S(3,-4)
Guys I really can't solve this 😫
write general polynomial function ax³+bx²+cx+d=y, make a system of 4 equations substituting the points P,Q,R,S
180- (116/2)-(50/2)=97
does anyone know how to solve this? ;-; its matrix but im not even sure what type of question is this
I dont understand the question. Why not just prove that Rx(a) * Rx(b) = Rx(a+b)
and then just set alpha_1 =.. = alpha_N = theta/N?
to prove that Rx(a) * Rx(b) = Rx(a+b) you use 2 trigonometry formulas, each twice
(formulas of cos(a+b), sin(a+b))
idk what kind of theorems you have, but basically it's like u have
an equation Ax=b where A is a 3x4 matrix, x a 4x1 vector and b a 3x1 vector
they gave u two solutions x' and x'' to that equation
so Ax' = b and Ax'' = b
so u can subtract those equations and factor by A :
A(x'' - x') = 0
cool, let us set y = x''-x' = (5, 5, 5, 5) = 5 * (1,1,1,1)
that means 5 A * (1,1, 1,1) = 0
meaning A * (1,1,1,1) = 0
so u can take the equation Ax'=b, and add as many times A(1,1,1,1) as you want on the left side
in x'=(2, 3,4,5), the "x3 coordinate" has value 4, so to reach 24, we add 20 times that A(1,1,1,1)
in other words, :
20 * A(1,1,1,1) + A(2,3,4,5) = 20 * 0 + b
so A(22, 23, 24, 25) = b
so (22,23,24,25) is a solution
now if u didn't study matrices (and how linear equations are basically like Ax=b matrix equations) , it would be more bothersome to explain the solution in msgs
you just split it into 4 right triangles and use sin cos tan
actually you can do it without that
I really need help guys
Suppose that in the initial step we have a segment 5 units long. Consider the process of dividing the segment into four equal parts and replacing the second and third quarters with equilateral triangles without the base, as shown in the bottom 6-segment figure.
Determine the spatial dimension of the fractal that is obtained by repeating this process indefinitely.
Provide your answer to at least two decimal places.
we did learn matrix! the reason i was confused was bc it looks like its just adding things together which is very different from what i used to see in matrix problems (we are not solving a matrix or anything like that) but i completely forgot about that Ax=b thing! and now it actually makes sense!! i need to watch more youtube video to get myself used to questions like this haha. thank you so much for such a detailed explaination! it helps a lot!
??
sorry I don't really get what's asked since i didn't study in english 😬 if I could help I would!!
do i have to give direction in radians here because thats what the answer did but nowhere is it specified that radians is required
angle pya = ypa because ya = pa
50 + 2x = 180
2x = 130
x = 35
jy = jp ==> jyp = jpy
116 + 2a = 180
2a = 180-116
a = 64/2
a= 32
jyp = jpy = 32 + 35 = 67
Thx

your welcome :)
Does anyone know what happens when you have a complex differential equation with both sine and cosine on the right of it? As in y'+5y=sinx+cosx for example
Then the particular solution will be a linear combination of a cos and a sine of the same frequency as the ones present in the equation.
That means, here, that y_p(t) = A cos(t) + B sin(t)
But, more generally, keep in mind that the particular solutions of different independant terms can be found independently, and then added together
Example :
y'' -4y'= cos(3t) + 4 exp(2t)
Here, you can find the two particular solutions y_1(t) and y_2(t) such that :
y_1''(t) - 4 y_1'(t) = cos(3t)
y_2''(t) - 4 y_2'(t) = 4 exp(2t)
Then the particular solution of the whole equation will be y_p(t) = y_1(t) + y_2(t)
I hope I was able to help you ^^
Can someone tell what i have done wrong over here
Looks pretty fine to me. What makes you say it's wrong ?
Answer given in the book is 1 and not 2. I think it might be a mis print
"Add (1) + (2)"
Can't believe i spent 30 mins on this and couldn't figure that out
Yup, that happens.
Last night I spent 3 hours staring at my screen, looking for the cause of a bug in my code. Turns out I had mistyped one letter
So yeah, that happens
Hahaha, sigh 
Thanks ^-^
given that 1<n<2 state a value for n which n^2 > 1
is it 2?
like the minimum even tho it doesnt say
but n needs to be smaller than 2 so it can't be 2
simplify it with steps pls. Im not able to find e
e = √[1 + (64/e²) / (256/e⁴)]
x^2 > 1 for any real value x>1
• 256 = 16^2
• e^4 = (e²)^2
• sqrt(x²) = x if x >= 0
• sqrt(a/b) = sqrt(a)/sqrt(b) if a and b are positive
Now you've got enough info
Oh thank you
I don't know if that'll lead to the answer but have you tried splitting into simple fractions ?
yea got nowhere
this should be the obvious method but there's probably a smarter one, since you can't write a polynomial of degree 2015
Can either of you help me with the working im more interested in that than the final answer @ember kernel @supple island
Nope sry I'm super busy
Thanks for offering though
Oh sorry sorry my b
Haha lmao np man if u get a chance i would greatly appreciate it
how?
a is a real constant, any ideas?

Yea yea
i am also in class 10 cbse lol
You also have exam on 5 then?
yes , but the sad thing is i have my 2nd language exam right after maths the next day :(
thanks and all the best

- Differentiate the content of the ln (what I denoted as (...)). It's a fraction of functions so there is a specific formula to use
Multiply (1) by (2) ('cause chain rule) and you're done
Ah thank you !!
it's probably a long shot but any of you is completing the bachelor of science at l'X?
what's that ?
it's a bachelor program (maths and a specialty in cs physics or economics) at Polytechnique Paris
aka the best engineer school in france x)
ens Ulm is better than us at science tho
can someone pls tell me what do I type to make this into a number
are you sure your calculator gives you the whole number? cause mine doesn't either
i guess it depends on the calculator
let me try a small number
okk
u were right
hhaha ok so problem solved?
yes thanks so much
okayy np 🤗
does anyone know how logarithmic properties were developed?
Several different mathematicians worked on logarithms. Is there a specific property you're talking about ?
do you go there?
don't post memes here
found it , thanks
yeah probably
no sorry
can this exits ?
we generally do not take negative bases in a logarithm
however logically speaking, there is nothing wrong in what you've done
is anyone adept at wolfram mathematica software?
no, logarithms can't have a negative base
Completing what everyone said.
Although (-2)^3 = -8 is valid, the log operator is only defined for strictly positive bases, so what you wrote is rigorously wrong
completing what everyone said
the underlying reason we require the log operator to have a positive base is that we want it to be applicable to real numbers, not necessarily integer numbers.
for example we want log_A(6.6666) to make sense. if we allow the base, A, to be negative, then it doesn't make sense (what's (-3)^1.5 for example?)
we don't have much to gain by extending the definition to negative bases (it only helps us find integers x such that A^x = n, where A and n are (possibly negative) integers). However we have a lot to lose (wouldn't be able to apply the log operator to non-integer numbers anymore)
yo lads
i have no idea whats going on with part c
i'd really appreciate it if u guys would help me with this
where u get 133 from first of all
hey, i am working on probability now so i can't walk you through it 100% (because I am still figuring it out myself), but as described in the problem you can see it is normal distribution and it is asking for conditional probability (we know this because their language "Given that..."). So, knowing Alice is going on a 6 hour journey, and she hasn't charged phone in 127 hours, they do 6+127 which is 133. So pretty much they are asking you: what is the probability the phone will work for longer than 133 hours GIVEN THAT she hasn't charged it in 127 hours?
and from there they apply the formula for the conditional probability and solves... hopefully this helped clear the problem a bit for you?
yeah thank you
one more thing
the line where it says 1-0.9861 what happened there
I am not completely sure, maybe wait until someone else answers this for you. My guess would be they evaluate P(L>133) by finding P(L<133), which is 0.9861 and then use 1-0.9861 which would be calculating for the complement, or everything besides P(L<133), which would be P(L>133). Think of it as if: you cannot calculate all possibilities because there is no top limit (L could hypothetically go infinitely), so you take the inverse of what you don't want. They then do that for both sides, because they are both >, then solves for the answer. That's my best guess because I am learning this at the same time as you :D
I found a link that may help you further: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/126155/normal-distribution-and-conditional-probability
bruh this dr frost don is making it more complicated
all u do is normal cd on calc and done
thank you brother
i have something to tell u bro @hollow blade
tell me when u ready
what's up?
thanks for all the answers , ig the properties don't work if we take negative numbers although we can use complex numbers but anyways , discord is so useful man !
hey guys ive got a math test in a few weeks
can someone help me with a question?
15 = x + 5
find x
pls help fast
erm selpo its 10
are you sure my mum said it was 5
yes i did some napkin math
Subtract 5 from both sides than you’re left with 10=x
Example:
15=x+5
15-5=x+5-5
10=x
Whatever you do to one side of the equation you have to do to the other.
cos^-1(-1/2)= pi - cos^-1(1/2)
= pi - cos^-1(cos pi/3)
=pi - pi/3
=(2/3)pi
ye ik how to work it out
why is it the second quadrant tho
why not third????
https://mathmistakes.info/facts/TrigFacts/learn/uc/nar.html
this might help
ok ok i dont think im conveying my point
i know how to use the diagram and everything
my question is
cos-1(-1/2)=theta
theta has two solutions
yes?
i think theta has only one solution
?
how
cos is negative in both second and third quad
yes
ok
andddddd
thus two solutions
my question is for the vector question the answer only considered the 2nd quad not third
why is that the case
oh got it
ye
do u know why?
oh also maybe we should create a seperate thread for this
because its a lot of messages and i dont want to ruin the flow for the chat
Ok be careful there.
There are two kinds of logarithms.
One is defined for strictly positive real numbers.
The other is defined for all complex numbers except 0
They are very different, and the latter uses the former in its formula.
Your mistake:
The complex logarithms doesn't take any base. We just write log(z), because log_w(z) makes absolutely no sense.
The real logarithm, however, does need a base to work, and is written as log_a(x) or ln(x), but rigorously not log(x) (sometimes people write it that way, but it implicitly means log_10(x) or log_e(x))
The one you showed us contained a base, so that means you were talking about the real logarithm, not the complex one
In that case negative numbers are forbidden
In the complex logarithm, any complex numbers that isn't 0 is accepted
I hope this helped you understand the difference between the two kinds of log
yeah for sure
Hello can anyone help me with part b of this question?
Cuz after I wrote this I'm clueless as hell
A^(k+1)
= A^k * A
= [ (2^k - 1) A - (2^k - 2) I ] A
= (2^k - 1) A² - (2^k - 2) A
now we use from question a that A² = 3A - 2I
so A^(k+1)
= (2^k - 1) * (3A-2I) - (2^k - 2) A
= (3 * 2^k - 3 * 1 - 2^k + 2) A - (2^k - 1) * 2 I
= ( 2 * 2^k - 1 ) A - (2^(k+1) - 2) * I
= (2^(k+1) - 1) A - (2^(k+1) - 2) * I
Can someone please help me with this ?
All of them?
It would be better if all but don't have to !!
Question 6 is the hardest one for me
Can someone please help me with this
Hey ! I created a thread that, hopefully, will help you understand how it is possible to work your way around that kind of problems using units
It could also be useful to anyone that's struggling with memorizing/using high school physics formulas
I'm having trouble with definite integration (calculus btw)
So I wrote down this example that's done already but I have no idea what I'm seeing so if anyone can explain the steps I'd appreciate it
thanks !
ok so u r confused about the steps?
as in the method of solving these kinds of questions
yeah
ok so the method u r using here is called u substitution
now instead of me doing a poor job on explaining how to do this i suggest having a look at this
MIT grad shows how to do integration using u-substitution (Calculus). To skip ahead: 1) for a BASIC example where your du gives you exactly the expression you need in order to substitute, skip to time 1:30. 2) For an example where you have to REARRANGE THE DU by multiplying or dividing because the du has a different number or sign than what you ...
it explains it really well
if you are still confused then i can try to help
thank you!
had hard time solving this one, any help would be appreciated
I have to take my final for quantitative reasoning and have not paid attention all year and need help lol
Quick solution, just get better ✌️
git gud
Hi I'm trying to get the right volume for a cylinder and I used the right formula and everything but I don't know why I got 6438.7 instead of 650.617??? I don't know what I'm doing wrong
i get the same answer...
@left knoll
not exactly, i get 6438.87 but doesn't really matter hahaha
i guess since there's nothing wrong with the formula or the numbers maybe you copied the diameter and height wrong? if not then it has to be the solution that's wrong
i don't really get this...by unit they mean department plus assembly right? but if we have 18 hours for assembly then there's only 3 hours for department left. so how are we supposed to produce anything if we run out of time for the department but still have 15 hours left for assembly, when assembly takes less time
idk if i understood it correctly hahaha pls explain if i'm wrong
Hey,i just want tips on how to memorize the TSA , CSA AND volumes of shapes , i have my exams in some days but I'm not able to memorize these thing . Pls help .
ah i got used circumference instead of diameter- lol i fixed it
if its a question, post it here
oh im good now , thanks!
With limited time I would just recommend making an Anki deck of the formulas you want to memorize and overstudy until your exam. When you review each card read the formula out loud e.g. "A sphere's volume is four-thirds of pi times the radius cubed", I find this helps it stick in my memory. For each formula say it the same way every time and try to keep the same rhythm/cadence in your voice. Your brain will cling to the words and rhythm better than it will the image of the symbols.
Thanks a lot for your advice , i will try this method for sure.
ye
how do u get this?
Simple maths
sooo
probably he wasn't multiplying by Pi
😂
hi ! i'm a little confused when solving trigonometric equations, how do I know what to add after the solution (+kpi, +2kpi, +kpi/2)? Sometimes it feels like I can only know if I already have the solution memorized and know at what intervals we obtain the solution. For example:
cos(x) = 1/2 has as solution
x= pi/3 + 2k*pi or x = -pi/3 +2kpi
but tan(x) = 1 is x = pi/4 + kpi
sin(x) = 0, x = kpi
How do I know when calculating whether to add 2kpi, kpi etc... ?
thank you so much i'd never seen this before!
The measure of the supplement of angle A is 40 degrees larger than twice the measure of the complement of angle A. What is the sum in degrees, of the measures of the supplement and complement of angle A?
I forgot how to do this
180-A=40+2(90-A)
supplement is the angle that adds up to 180, complement to 90
thx alot
hi
where did the 2 come from in the first line of working out
i understand the -4
is this even correct or what i cant see it
It could be a typo since (4 sin 30)j = 2j, which is what it simplifies to on the second line
thank you brother
Yes, it would be 2t-(1/2)gt² but the whole equation is multiplied by (-1) so it becomes -2t + (1/2)gt²
if i have an inequality: x^2>= 1 then can i write it as x>=1 by taking square root on both sides
No, you can't
The first inequality has ]-inf,-1]U[1,inf[ as solutions.
The second inequality only has [1, inf[
Different solutions means the inequalities aren't equivalent, and thus that you made a mistake somewhere
The actual answer is
x² >= 1 is equivalent to "x>= 1 or x <= -1"
Just like in classic equations, taking the sqrt of both sides will always introduce a +- factor
Inequalities aren't exceptions to that. Furthermore : the - factor also causes the >= to switch direction and become <=
Ohhhh..... i get it now
Thank you so much!!
<@&942391219206647828>
help, i'm so confused
The "??" should be points from the circles, as it is written it's not possible to solve this
AC is a diameter of the larger circle and BC is a chord in the larger circle and is tangent to the smaller circle. AB has length 140.
This way you should be able to solve, if u still can't do it i can help
could you draw out the diagram so i can understand? 🥲
@grave elbow
-
An officer on an 90 ft. observation tower measures the angle of depression of a boat to be 59°. How far is the boat from the tower? (Express your answer to the nearest whole number)
-
From the top of the house that is 35 m high, the angle of depression of a car on the ground is observed to be 25°. Find the distance of the car from the base of the house. (Express your answer to the nearest whole number)
it is
oh really? okayyy i wasn't sure
yes xd
i didn't calculate it i think you can do that right?
yes! but what does "/.90" this mean?? it wasn't taught yet......
oh hahahaha
sorry it just means that you multiply everything with 90 so that you get x
or with 35
ohhhh i see
you basically bring it to the other side so that you have numbers on one side and variables on the other
thank youuu so muchhh actually i already answered it but mines wrong
ohh hahaha no problemm😊
what part was wrong?
everyhting ig TT
- 54 ft
- 75 m
these were my answers
yes 💓
is the first item 35?? sorry i just wanted to make sure 🥲
im sorry but can i ask somth about the angle of depression im so confused actually my friend sent me a reference link on how to get the answer
she told me to use option 2
so the answer i got is diff to so im so confused
what do you mean by item?
oh its the first ques
OHH
yeah so the angle of depression was somehing esle
i wasn't sure cause english isn't my native language hahaha
ok but it's still the same concept
wait let me show you
@low oriole
i always use this method with the Z
if you have two parallel lines that are connected in this Z shape then the two angles are the same
in this case you can see a Z shape too which i coloured in blue here
this explains it as well
yeah isn't the house 35m high?
yes
thank you i was confused really...... sorry for disrupting your time btw 🥲😢
if we call X=AB and x=EF, the area of the trapezium is (X+x)(X-x)/2=(X²-x²)/2=35
now we know that BF=sqrt((X-x)²+(X-x)²)=(X-x)sqrt(2)=10 so x=X-10/sqrt(2)
from this you should be able to do everything
the answer was 6√2 but i don't get how
did you get everything now?
also pls don't be sorryyy i really like helping wherever i can
it's better to ask more than not ask
yes!
okayy😊 it should be correct now...if not then tell me, i'll try again hahaha
❤️
wbb ❤️

Hi guys does anyone know how to solve for the domain in this equation? I can solve for polynomials with degree 2 but idk how to solve equations that has more than power 2. Help pls t-t
Find the area bounded by the x-axis and the graph of f(x) = x^23 if -1 ≤x≤1.
can someone fascinate me more about π
use z=x², then solve for z
could someone explain how they got the answer of -2
5-3x > 11 |-5
-3x > 6 | /3
-x > 2 |+x |-2
x < -2
i can give you the answer but this is very basic, you should check the theory again before jumping into exercises
I already did, I know what i have to do, but im not sure which number i have to start with
'+4 or +x', thats my issue :')
the order doesn't matter
as long as you end up with x=
6x : 6 = x
how did u get 0 💀
- 4 : 6
oh wait
oops i forgot half of it
5x - 4 = -x - 4
+x
6x - 4 = -4
6x - 4 = -4
+4
6x
UR RIGHT
I UNDERSTAND OML THIS TOOK ME YEARS
any maths book recommendations? i want to start reading maths book but idk how
topic?
any topic but im mostly intersted in mathematics that relate to computer science
not too much math, more algorithms, pretty basic, still good. Dont know your level.
Can someone pls help me with this. I don’t know how to interpret the question in a correct way
what's to interpret? the request is quite straightforward
I just don’t know how to solve it
I always come the wrong answer so I guessed I’m missing something or misinterpreted
which one? the graph is quite simple
I can’t make the prescription.
And I’m asking help bc I don’t understand it. Can you pls help me instead of judging the whole time that it’s simple easy. I know for a physics student it probably is and for others maybe too. But I’m not understanding it.
And for me it’s not always that simple
there are multiple answers btw.....
i'm not judging, i just don't understand what you don't get, the problem asks you to do a graph v-t and tells you how the speed changes during time.
you'll have 3 sections, one where's accelerating, one where it's decelerating and another in which the speed is constant
just as the problem says
you just need to substitute lambda u and u+v instead of u in the equation above
does anyone prepare for imo ?
ty!
would this be considered normal distribution or not?
If the data is actually linear then it is possible, but unlikely. It could be that you have not got enough samples to see the full variance of the data, however, if you tried to replicate this by sampling from a normal distribution (the same number of samples as you have data points in your plot) and adding these samples to a line, you would have to do this many times before you saw something that looked anything like this. Of course, it is possible that your data is not actually linear, in which case it would also be possible (and more likely) for the errors in this data to have come from a normal distribution. At any rate, my opinion is that it is very difficult to tell from this plot.
oh i see, thank you so much for your answer! :))
i tried doing 2) and i got 167,5m...seems wrong tho hahahah. what's the solution?
from what i understood the velocity graph would be something like this
uhmm how do i know where the 90° angle is?😭
wait i did it again and got 212m
why would it have a 90º angle?
cause they're using sin cos and tan here
but the triangle doesn't need to have 90º necessarily
but then how do you know where the hypotenuse is
It's not necessarily a right-angled triangle
The triangle could be formed by 3 60º angles
ooooooooohh yeah i get it
first one is correct
thank you so much!
thank you so much!
if you need the others too i can try solving them as well
really? then i would appreciate it!
hahah yes i always only do part of it cause i want you to try it on your own too but if you need help with it i can try too
oh btw the choices in letter b was incorrect i type b instead of c
wait wdym i don't get it
oh i would like to try on my own to buy i don't know how........ all ive known is that a/sin(A)=b/sin(B)=c/sin(C)
oh sorry hahahah
but the letter b.. i typed the wrong one so i corrected it
oh yeah that's basically all you need to know!
i tried showing how i got to the solution a bit but i guess that didn't really explain it hahaha
you know how to solve equations with variables right
so that's all you need to do here
yes??
ahh okayy i get it nowww
reallyy
yes the illustration
yess! and then you use this formula
ohhhh i seee ill try it
yesss it seems so
ok good hahah i wanna be sure
i figureed it out! the answer is the1st and last
letter d is ab/sin(c) i typed it wrong TT
bruh HAHAH
i just wanted to say i think d) has to be right cause it's always the most complicated ones that are right but AB/sinA doesn't work
but yeah this works hahaha
how did you solve c) tho? i gave up on that one
i mean i solved it by using numbers instead of variables but how do you do it without numbers?
oh the sequence i think it needs to be in order
Does that help?
It helps thank you.
is there any other logic to this question except 2 to the right and one up
because i would like to see this question from another perspective
it's actually (1 2)
Could you elaborate @supple island
y=2x means that the vector isn't (2 1) but (1 2)
ok?
Let B = (6, 7) and M = (4, 8)
Let A = (a, b) be the reflection of B with respect to the line y=2x
By symmetry, you know that the vectors A-M = -(B-M) = M-B
Therefore, A = 2M-B = 2(4, 8) - (6, 7) = (2, 9)
Hope you like this solution
Alternatively, you can also say that A-B = 2*(M-B), but that leads to the same final formula A = 2M-B
Ho many numbers do we have which are 5-digit, and are divisible by 15 and 18?
I've got 9k but im not sure
Is this a Laplace transform ?
yes i very much do tysm!
1,000
By 15 and 18 is 1000, do you mean "by 15 or 18"?
Oh yea. Exactly
I think it would be 10,000 then, divisible by 15 or 18
Yes it is.
looks like cos rule
draw a sketch
then use trig to calculate the angle and length you need

thank you it has been 3 years since i did math the last time i need to refresh a bit thank you
@ember kernel Can you please help me solve this problem.
Are u0 and u1 constant ?
'cause if so use these transforms and the linear property of Laplace Transform :
@ember kernel I don't so, I think it needs to be solved using the unit step function approach.
I still need to know what u0 and u1 are
The only thing I know is that they are not constants. The question was just given like that.
Maybe some abbrevation for u(t) and u(t-1) ?
Ok so yeah this indeed was an abbreviation I didn't know of
Btw, I'm just googling and looking through Laplace transform tables rn, so anything I'm doing, you can do too
This section is the table of Laplace Transforms that we’ll be using in the material. We give as wide a variety of Laplace transforms as possible including some that aren’t often given in tables of Laplace transforms.
Use the transforms at lines 25 and 30, and I think that should be enough
Good luck
If you need further explanations don't hesitate
Ook,Thank you.😌
pls help
ayt denks
can someone help me with this problem :' )
- Calculate the expression of f(x) using its roots and the y-value of its vertex
- Calculate the position of the vertex I
- Let g(x) = ax³ + bx² + cx + d. Build yourself a system of equations knowing that :
- g(I) = f(I)
- g'(-1) = 0
- g'(2) = 0
- g''(I) = 0 (because I is also the x-value located exactly between the two vertices of g)
- Find all the x-values where f(x) and g(x) intercept, and note keep the two positive ones (because have a closer look at the graph in the question)
- Integrate f(x)-g(x) between these two positive intersection x-values
And then you're done :)
is it true that f(x) = g'(x)? because f(x) passin through 2 extrema of g(x)
i was thinking of using vietas theorem... but stuck
yes sus them giving us the product of the roots
maybe add that as one of the eqs in the system ^
Definitely not
Because that's just a guess, not a fact
wdym
nvm isee the system is for the actual eq and this is for the cubic whos roots represent the intersections
so thyere different coefficients lol
Oh yeah
I thought you were talking about the f(x) = g'(x) guess
Although the equality f(x) = k g'(x) + d is indeed true in this scenario, I would recommend to not rely too much on that property, and just follow the general solution I gave
thanks yall :3 appreciate it
i have another problem... can you guys help me out 😰 (sorry for my bad english)
oh yeh forgot the +d 😔
there would be no +d here, when f'(x) = 0 we have g(x) = 0
(but generally there's no proof that f'(x) = g(x) here, except by finding the expression of g(x) through solving the equations he mentioned)
i must be trippin
tell me this aint a mistake

They’ve subbed in B=-1
Hey can someone help with Q5? My point A is exactly the same as origin so I’m pretty lost- Ping if ya helped and big thank ^^
can you rephrase the question pls?
what is your problem
where does the "du=-2xdx" and "1/2du=xdx come in solving:
Do you know how to integrate using substitution?
like u-substitution? Yeah
in this case u=9-x^2,
so du=-2xdx or du/2 = -xdx
i got a statistics question:

I suggest you look it up on YouTube, you might find a video that'll explain it way better than us. Just type "what is a function"
Hi , I have a question related to the probabilities. I have a lock of 4 entries and I know the first entry is 3 , how many combinations can I form with it?
i'm not really sure it is 10!/6! (m! /(m-n)! )
so you just need to find the number of combinations u can get with the 3 later entries. That's m^n with m = 10 and n = 3
so , i do not count the first one and I just calculate the total of combining 3 ?
another way to think of it is that this lock will be a number from 3000 to 3999 (included). There are 1000 numbers there
that's the same as 10^3
ye
that formula u wrote is when digits can't be repeated. When there is no repetition, then it's m! / (m-n)!. Here there can be repetition of digits (like 3222 is an okay combination), so it's m^n
ah... I understand , the same thing applies if I know first digit and last one?
if u know first digit and last one, that means u can only choose the 2 middle digits. There are 10^2 combinations then
the thing is I get a really high probability if I divide my number by this
no idea what you mean
would you mind if i dm my question?
id rather u write here
so , 4 digit combinations , we know we cant repeat the digit (ex 4444) also it cant be (1234) , I know the first digit , what's the probability of guessing
ok u didn't say anywhere else that we can't repeat the digit, I understand more now
and what's the first digit
I do 11010*10 - (nr times it repeats 10) -(14 times it is asce/discending) / 10^3 it gives 0.997 and something
5
so why do you say "it can't be 1234" if the first digit is 5 anyway
it won't be 1234 since the first digit is 5
yea
a little bit of oopsie in explaining it should be -1 (repeating ) -2 (ascending /discending)
?
you mean it cant' be repeating. And the 4 numbers can't be successive (whether ascending or descending)?
So is 1235 fine?
yes
ok so the number of possible combinations, if we allow ascending and descending combinations :
-Choosing the first digit : only 1 choice (the digit 5)
-Choosing the second : 9 choices (all digits but 5)
-Choosing the third digit : 8 choices (all digits but the 1st and the 2nd)
-Choosing the fourth digit : 7 choices (all digits but the 1st, 2nd and 3rd)
meaning it's 9! / (9-3)! = 504 if you want.
Now that INCLUDES ascending and descending combinations with successive digits. We need to take them off. There are only 2 possible ascending and descending combinations : 5678 and 5432. So it's actually 504 - 2 = 502
that's the number of possible combinations, you're gonna guess one of them. So your probability of guessing right is 1/502
I'm sorry ;-; Ivam a very bad explainer : we can't a combination like (5555) but 5551 should be fine
ah..
I did like this 1* 10 * 10 * 10 - 1 - 2 but I'm not sure with what to divide
I divided by 10!/6!
so 10^3
minus 1 (the choice 5555)
minus 2 (the choices 5678 and 5432)
that's 997 possible combinations
and if you guess randomly one of those 997 possible combinations, then ur probability that your guess is right is 1/997
oh...
no idea why you're dividing by 10!/6!
don't worry!
Hi. Could anyone please help me with 33?
You have to put t= f(x) and replace t in y(t). Then I suggest you draw y(x) to understand what it looks like
Then integrate
Hint: to find tangents you will need to use differentiate.
i love you too
love you too!!
